Foie gras: 'Sickening' footage shows need for ban, activists say
Animal Rights groups have released footage of ducks in France being force-fed in a bid to persuade ministers not to drop plans to ban Foie Gras imports.
Activists say the covert filming, captured in December, shows " sickening" mistreatment and the violation of several French welfare laws.

The Bbc understands a proposed ban on imports to the UK - part of The Draft Animals Abroad Bill - is to be scrapped.
The Bbc has been told that Mr Rees-Mogg believes restrictions should not be imposed on consumers.
He has also argued the ban would have no impact on animal welfare in the UK.
Connor Jackson, from animal welfare organisation Open Cages, called on Mr Rees-Mogg " to sit down and view these images".
" On this farm and others like it, there is a clear lack of interest in animal welfare.
" If The British government betrays these animals, millions of people will never forget it, " He Said .
Mr Rees-Mogg did not respond to The Bbc 's request for comment.
A government spokesperson said it was committed to " upholding standards in animal welfare".
" Our Action Plan for Animal Welfare sets out the government's vision to introduce world-leading reforms to improve animal welfare and the conservation of animals".
